Sunday Salon: Book Tours

The Sunday Salon.com Welcome to the Sunday Salon! Also visit The Sunday Post hosted by The Caffeinated Bookreviewer, and It's Monday: What Are You Reading? at Book Journey. Also, Mailbox Monday hosted by Rose City Reader this month, and Stacking the Shelves at Tynga's Reviews.

What I definitely have on my reading list for next year are the books I agreed to review for tours in January, almost all through TLC.

Brady Needs a Nightlight - Jan. 8

Short Leash: A Memoir of Dog Walking - Jan. 13

My Mother's Funeral: A Memoir - Jan. 20

A Different Sun: A Novel of Africa - Jan. 22
Last Train to Paris - Jan. 28

The schedule is a little tight toward the end of January, but I hope to read ahead to avoid a crunch. Curious about the books? Click on the covers for the book details.

Do you have any book tours coming up?

  5. Last Train to Paris looks good, I've been enjoying historical fiction lately especially the pre- war period. Sounds very interesting. Hope its good and have a great week.

  9. The first of the month doesn't look to bad, but the last half with book reviews due a few days apart...yikes. I'd have to have the books read ahead of time and schedule the posts. You did pick some good books though, can't wait for your review of Short Leash, A Different Sun & Last Train to Paris.

  16. I don't do book tours because I don't like the pressure. I put enough pressure on myself without looking for an outside source. Some of those books do look rather intriguing. I hope you enjoy them all. Happy reading and happy holidays.

  17. A Different Sun caught my eye. The typewriter cover DEFINITELY caught my eye, but the title is quite sad.

    THANKS for sharing and visiting my blog earlier.

    ENJOY your week.

  18. I'm trying to ease up on book tours (but just as sure as I say that, watch, I'll have a bunch come up!) but I am intrigued by "My Mother's Funeral" on your list! You've got a cool website, my friend, I love the way the page melt into each other! Happy Reading!

  19. One of my new reading resolutions is not to participate in any blog tours or accept ARCs, so no tours for me. :-) Last Train to Paris looks good. Happy reading.

  20. I'm really curious about the Downtown Abbey one, but they all look interesting! I hope you enjoy your books! :)

  21. Short Leash sounds like fun. That's a lot of January books! I tend to over schedule my reading so I only commit to a few tour dates.

  22. I am a Downton Abbey fan also, and that book caught my eye right off. I may have to check that one out.

  23. TLC always has some great tours. I'll be reading Brady with my daughter.
